One more day before 2009.
2008 was a okay year for me. Many ups and downs. But i managed to overcome it. Firstly was the dilemma of returning to the choir. However after many prayers i went back all thanks to aunty esther's text to mum too. Yippy.
School was pretty tough this year. Many projects but i had my project SOS help with me. he helped me quite alot when i was stuck. Picked up a new language - French. But i forgot half of it already. Went into TEP for second sem. Had fun during classical especially CS where class is always so fun and interesting. And for this year, i met quite a few new friends like elaine, eugene, bobby, people from classical and people from EMRS. Impossible to name all cause it will take forever.
Finally found a piano teacher. Yes she is quite a good teacher but somethings for theory work i will still refer back to aunty esther's notes. Piano lessons became another way for me to de-stress besides thursday nights.
Family wise. I realised we had family gatherings ever other month.
1. Reunion dinner
2. CNY
3. Grams birthday party
4. Mothers' Day celebration
5. Daryl's 21st birthday party (eh.. i was not there =S)
6. Daphne's birthday party
7. Wendy's birthday party
8. Chloe's 1st birthday party
9. BBQ at Downtown East Chalet
10. Jackie's and Chris' Wedding
11. Penang trip
Hope this can carry one in 2009 =)
Yes there are happy moments but there are also sad moments too.
During the mid year, grams health was not that good. Had a bp scare. However after all the care and concern, she has regain her health though now she can't travel to places by herself.
And granduncle's health too took a turn for the worst within two months. He left us for another more peaceful and beautiful place somewhere far away. Physically he will not be with us for whatever gathering but mentally he will always be there.
Hope for 2009, everyone will stay healthy and happy. Regardless of whatever crises, we will stick together as one big gigantic family =P
